“Thought it went very well last night – I was particularly pleased to see the way Coombe Boys and Southborough students had clearly got rid of any inhibitions and engaged with expressing themselves – it’s a difficult thing to get teenage boys to do and is a tremendous by product of the work you are doing. Well done!”

If you’re an aspiring writer or blogger looking for some valuable experience, then IYAF 2012 may be the perfect opportunity for you.
With the festival workshops kicking off this week and the main events starting next week, we are putting together a team of bloggers to relay the atmosphere of the festival to the wider world. The Huffington Post will be hosting all of our blog entries, and they will also be hosted right here on the IYAF website.
Bloggers will get free entry to any show or event they wish to write about, or if they attend numerous events they will get a free festival pass!
There is little restriction on the topic of the blogs, as long as they relate to the festival – they can be reviews of a show, an account of the carnival atmosphere, speaking to performers and organisers, or anything else you see fit.
If you are interested, please contact us at jarek@iyafestival.org.uk with a brief description of the areas you’d like to write about.
